Monitor Live-Bandwidth

Hi Team,

How we can Monitor our bandwidth using nagios xi,
Which one is best services for the same?
Thanks

what do you mean by 'live' bandwidth? this might be better off using a nagios product called network analyzer. it will read through your flow data and tell you information, but, again - it really depends on what you're looking for.

otherwise the switch / router wizard should work fine for monitoring bandwidth per interface, it will only poll every x minutes though.

Thanks @tacolover101!

@ivp2015I do believe Nagios Network Analyzer is more what you would be looking for.

Thanks

https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ctions.pdf covers installing NA. It does require a license after a 60 day trial period.

For clarity, you can monitor bandwidth with XI, but not *live* bandwidth really, which is why @tacolover101 asked for clarification on that matter (and why he present the switch/router wizard). You can poll every minute, but that's going to produce load on your XI server.
